Good to see he's still around but that was a really awkward interview. Didn't really seem like himself
Spot on, he really didn't want to be there. He really didn't want to address the Silva fight either. I like him, but it really seems like he hasn't moved on from all of this, he's just been hiding.
Quaaludes or methaqualone was a prescription drug used in the treatment of anxiety, called an anxiolytic, or to promote sleep. Methaqualone was a central nervous system depressant, and is comparable to barbiturates. When it was used in prescribed doses, it tended to promote relaxation, sleepiness, and for some, a feeling of euphoria.
Classic Forrest humor gotta love it. I would really like a fight between either Forrest and Franklin or Ortiz as they talked about on there but personally id rather see him against Ortiz. Letting a dude as loved as Forrest get back in the winning column by avenging a loss AND whooping on one of the most hated men in MMA would be enough to make most people forget all about the Silva loss.

I think that loss had a pretty big impact on Forrest, to say the least. He seems like a different guy now. You could tell he was trying to dodge the inevitable question on why he ran out after the Silva fight, and when it was asked to him he doubtlessly became upset and even a little flustered. I can understand why he doesn't like himself.
He honestly seemed a little... suicidal in the beginning of that interview.
Like trying to tell us he was. He just wanted to keep driving above the limit in a flashflood that killed 10 people?
Oh man Forrest. I hope he was just having an off day during this interview. He definitely seemed to be trying to be quirky instead of just being quirky.
